The ideological viewpoint of practical writing mainly comes from materials.

Themes Every practical essay should revolve around a theme. The more specific the theme, the easier it is to write practical articles.

For whom do you write personal letters? For family, friends and lovers; Business letters are written for business partners; Advertisements are written for the general public; Posters are written for a certain group of people. Knowing who to write for, you can make the content of practical writing moderate and appropriate, and make your information fully conveyed to the other party.

is the purpose of writing to provide your information to the other party, or to ask the other party to provide you with information? Is it a business negotiation or a relationship? Although a practical essay determines the theme, it sometimes fails to achieve its purpose. Why? If the purpose is not clear, the content will be inaccurate and confusing.

Extended materials:

Views and materials are the two main factors of the article, and the unification of views and materials is the basic requirement of the article. For daily practical writing, the so-called viewpoint refers to the opinions, attitudes, opinions and wishes expressed by practical writing.

The so-called materials are the factual basis used to illustrate opinions. Specifically, daily practical writing has the following requirements for viewpoints and materials.

(a) the viewpoint should be focused and clear, and it should be practical

Daily practical writing is generally about one thing, that is, there is generally only one problem explained or dealt with in an article, and what to advocate, what to oppose, what to support, what to do and what not to do should be clear-cut and unambiguous. Of course, any viewpoint should be put forward in accordance with the laws and regulations of the state, the principles, policies and relevant regulations of the party and * * *.

The meaning expressed in daily practical writing should also conform to the actual situation of life, and the methods and requirements put forward should be practical, not subjective and empty talk, but wishful thinking.

(2) The facts or materials cited should be conclusive and convincing

The viewpoint is the soul, and the facts cited are the basis of the viewpoint. Without materials, the viewpoint cannot stand. Lack of materials or improper materials can't make a good point. Therefore, the selection of materials is very strict. It is necessary to prove a certain point, but it is not advisable to pile up materials blindly, especially in daily practical writing, which requires refined and appropriate materials to explain the problem.
